How to make a pretty tabletop terrarium
You will need:
Glass container or vessel
Small pebbles
Crushed charcoal
Potting soil
Moss and succulents
Instructions:
1. Cover the bottom of your container with a layer of small pebbles and then top with a layer of active charcoal and then potting soil.
2. Add your succulent plants like hen and chicks or cacti.
3. Fill in the gaps with moss.
4. Simply mist your terrarium once a week to keep it looking its best.
Note: Place your terrarium in natural, indirect light for best results. Direct sunlight might burn the plants!
